Visible: Can we see it or can we not?
Thinking visibility of the teaching as well as the learning.
We used to send an abbreviated termly plan to whanau. We hardly even mention what our focus is currently. Good to see WALTs and SC still working well.
Using google sites to turbo charge their learning. Online space takes away excuses. Lost this etc
Students are able to access learning. Remove the barriers.
ACCESSIBLE
AVAILABLE

BLOGS to share learning.
SITES - teaching
LEARN - Hapara
Good to hear that young students can access sites via ipads.
Some amazing sites that we looked at. Really high quality teaching in there.
Multi-modal. - different ways of communicating.
The young connect via social media. Get kids excited about their learning. Actively involved in their learning. We need to sell our learning. Your site is your shop front window! WOW factor. Sites to be refreshed often. New content frequently.
Multiply texts and multi modal. Beh and Cog engagement.
Recreate a site every year. Keeps it fresh.
Multimodal - really cool shared resources.
Enjoyed collaborating with others on the rainbow fish. Here is my attempt at the slides...Rainbow fish site sandpit activity
